It’s still astounding to me how enormous Shaq is.  We spotted the Phoenix Suns star leaving his hotel in Manhattan yesterday and then signing autographs for some tiny fans.  Shaq has recently been in the news due to his verbal assault on Laker Kobe Bryant.  There’s been a lot of back and forth and weighing in but Shaq claims that "I was freestyling. That’s all. It was all done in fun. Nothing serious whatsoever. That is what MCs do."
